			I said I want a comer the law here but I'll go to the salon or Haman hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa
Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi Jemaine about these two brothers
and sisters around the world wherever you may be asked Allah subhanho wa Taala to accept our PM, our
CM our hierarchy, all this other power that we may give in the month of Ramadan, all the Quran
Tilawat or the Afghan, and especially our do ours May Allah subhanaw taala accept all of them in the
month of Ramadan Amira will Alameen continuing with our series, the branches have faith, in going
back of the hadith of Ebola or the ultra under there are so many are branches of faith, the Prophet
		

			sallallahu alayhi salam, as he has mentioned the Hadith, and not only that, but we also find a
Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that a Bedouin man came to the Prophet. And he
asked him about Islam, and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam gave him the basic bare minimum,
five times daily prayers, you can do more than that, there is a cat and you can do more than that.
So the branch of faith that I want to talk about today is known as the cat because the cat is part
of our Islam, we believe in the cat we give the cada is mandatory, but what I'm talking about today
is giving sadaqa and giving charity for the sake of Allah subhanho wa taala. So, there is no doubt
		

			in the fact that when we talk when we talk about financial experts and economists and so forth, they
say that the better the economy is the better things are going to flourish in a society. So people
go to work people they make an earning and a living from work, and then they go and they spend it
and this is how the cycle and the economy keeps on running. The same thing can also apply to sadaqa
too, and giving charity for the sake of Allah subhana wa Tada. So Allah subhanaw taala has given you
and I wealth, Allah wants us to spend that for the cause of Allah subhanho wa taala. And the
difference between the cat and sadaqa is as the cat must be given for a very specific purpose, and
		

			it has to be given to a specific type of people. On the other hand, sadaqa can be given for any good
height. In fact, even if there is a an organization, a charitable organization, that of another
faith, we can give sadaqa to them also. And that is also pleasing to Allah subhanho wa taala. So
giving your money for any good cause is considered as a sadaqa. So Allah gives us we give sadaqa and
Allah increases in our wealth. And so the more we give, Allah will increase in our wealth, that
means that we're going to dish out and we're going to give out even more, and the more we give out,
then inshallah Allah subhanho wa Taala will give us even more, and then the more that we have, then
		

			Inshallah, the more is the cut we're gonna give, and the more we're going to have our own Muslim
community benefiting from that. So this is how also through sadaqa, and through zakat, there is a
process and there's a cycle, the money keeps on going around.
		

			Allah subhanho wa Taala there is no doubt in the fact that Allah subhanaw taala has created on this
earth enough resources for every man's need. But there are not enough resources for every man's
greed. We have so much greed today, that this is why we find that there are the resources are always
running out. We're talking about world resources. If every person were to just simply take what they
need for their life, everyone would have enough. But this is the problem that we have today is that
everyone is so greedy, and people because of greed. First of all, we want to keep on hoarding, we
want to keep we want to have more and more, but we don't want to give out. So this is why one of the
		

			best ways to get rid of our greed is to give sadaqa for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala one of
the things about salah that I want to really emphasize on is that there is nothing wrong in being
rich. You know, growing up as a child, I used to hear this so many times, that there is something
wrong in being rich. And the reason why I understand now growing up and after studying and so forth,
that there is nothing wrong in being rich. However, we have to become rich. And if we want to become
rich, we become rich the right way. Today we live in times that in order to become rich, we have no
problem in deceiving others, cheating others stealing from others lying to others. We have no
		

			problem in doing that. So if we what if we become rich this way? This is the wrong way of being
rich. If we want to become rich the right way. Then you have a perfect example in the robin alpha
the alotta and he was extremely well off. He was a poor companion. He was very rich. Every single
major expedition that will take place of the hub and mouth was a major contributor. And so a time
		

			was a situation who was always there to give money. In fact, we find that the people in Medina,
there was so many people that he gave our loans to, but he would never ask those loans back. There
were so many people that he gave sadaqa to, and he never went and he never used that against them.
So it's very important that we've learned from our, from our companions of the Prophet SAW Selim,
that they were very rich, but they kept on giving. We find also in the case of other hominid for the
yellow line, though, once after the life of the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam, there was like a
commotion in Medina, he had come into Medina, with 600 camels, each camel loaded with merchandise,
		

			but he gave all that for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala. We also find that I do have an offer so
rich, and because he gave some a sadaqa, the owner they mentioned that Allah subhanaw taala
increased in his wealth, so much wealth he had, that when he passed away, he had 46 shares that went
out to his to his heirs. And each share, listen to this, each share consisted of 80,000 dinars.
Subhanallah think about you can do the math, how much shares and how much money that is Agraharam
and I've had all of that. We also find that once Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, when he saw
that, you know, the Muslims are still struggling in Medina. He has already gone to the marketplace.
		

			He's already made money. He already got married. And the Prophet asked him that other Harmon oath,
what did you give as your Muhammad and he says, Oh Rasul Allah, I gave a gold break as the Mahara
and the province I was shocked, and he was astonished. But it also did not say that, Oh, man, this
wealth is going to take you down, or this wealth is not good, because I'm gonna have been off
although he was rich, he earned his money the correct way. And he's spent his money the correct way
in a way that is pleasing to Allah subhanho wa taala. And that is what Allah wants from us. Part of
the benefits of silica is that there are many number one is silica is a guaranteed investment. Today
		

			we look for investments, where can I make a good investment sadaqa is a guaranteed investment. I
give you the call today, it is going to be in the bank of Allah subhanaw taala. And another benefit
of sadaqa is that on the Day of Judgment, it will come and it will benefit us in a major way. Think
about this, imagine if I'm standing before Allah subhanho wa Taala on the Day of Judgment, we will
be looking at our sins and we think that we are doomed. But at that time, Allah subhanaw taala will
bring forward all the sadaqa that we have given. And so this is why it's very important that we give
her the clock. So the car protects us from calamities. So the car brings the the pleasure of Allah
		

			subhana wa Tala, so the car has a never ending good. Like, imagine if you guys sell the car to
someone, and they turn around and they use that so the car in a better way. And as hired keeps on
continuing the head started with you. And hence you will keep on getting that reward for that.
Imagine if a person gave sadaqa. And they built a well, till the last day till there's a person who
will be drinking from that, well, they will keep on getting the reward, even though this person may
have passed away. So this is why it's so important that there are so many benefits of silica that we
can learn from the Hadith. And the most important one is that the more a person gives, the more
		

			Allah Subhana Allah will increase in his wealth. And as a prophet says, These are not my words.
These are the words of the Prophet, which can never be a lie, that Allah will never diminish the
wealth of the person who gives the call. This is the guarantee of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam. So nowadays, I understand that there is a situation going on, there's a pandemic going on.
But at the same time, we need to understand that we in this time, we should give as much as we can.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he says that the best soccer that you can give is not when
things are great. But when things get tough, you know, it's there's a saying in English, when the
		

			when the tough.
		

			The tough get going when the going gets tough, that those who are P though P those people who are
tough. When things get tough for them, then the tough get going. So that's why it's very important
that in times like these, we give sadaqa as much as we can and even though we are fearful of what's
going to happen to the economy, what's going to happen to the future. Remember that Allah subhanho
wa Taala holds the keys to all the treasures, we are dealing here not with the economy we're dealing
here with Allah subhanho wa taala. So keep that in mind. Lastly, I want to share with you some
etiquettes and some adapt when it comes to give me so the card that are highlighted and certain
		

			background. So the background first of all mentioned that when we give sadaqa which should give only
and only for the sake of Allah subhana wa Taala number two, when we give sadaqa we should never use
it as to take advantage of our sadaqa so how long
		

			Allah forgive us that there are many situations today that people are giving. So the call people are
very generous, people are opening their hearts. But in return they want to position or in return
they want to power or in return, they want something that is considered as materialistic. So when we
get for the sake of Allah subhanho, wa taala, that means that I'm not I do not want anything from
this dunya I want the I want the credit only only from Allah subhanho wa taala. Number two, number
three is when we give sadaqa we should not remind anyone that we gave them sadaqa. And not only
that, but we should never use this as to harm someone else's reputation. Imagine you gave sadaqa to
		

			someone or imagine you gave some money to someone to help someone else out. And then you go, you ask
them for a favor. And they say that you know what, I have to excuse myself, I cannot help you out.
You know what happens at that time shaytaan comes towards and says, See, you help that person and
that person never gives you anything back next time do not even help that person. Or what she
thought may make us do is we may remind that person that you know, I used to help you out? Or do you
remember I used to help you out. And so this is why it's very important that when we give we do it
only only for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala and do not remind anyone of your favors. This is
		

			something that you know, we understand, going back to the story of Musa and Hadith, that when he put
when he lifted that wall and he fixed that wall, Musa alayhis salam said that these people are not
even giving us anything and you're doing them a favor. And what did her say? He says What can a
doctor who can do Lahoma What can a boo hoo masala Ha, that even though they did not give us but
here I am protecting the wealth of two orphan children by fixing this wall. Otherwise, these people
they have so much greed that they will take all the wealth here. So this is why it's very important
that when we give, we don't remind anyone. And not only that, but we don't use that as to hurt
		

			anyone else. And finally, one the etiquettes of giving sadaqa is that we give sadaqa with our best
wealth, yes, our best wealth. What that means is that imagine that if I have to give some clothes
for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala today, we give clothes that are absolutely worn out that are
that cannot be you know, that cannot be worn by anyone else. Now that today is so sad that when we
go and we give clothes for sadaqa we just put them in a garbage bag and we just drop them at the
charitable organization or the charity Center. This is not the right way of giving. Remember, we're
giving it not for them. Has Hassan Busey mentioned that when you're giving sadaqa you're not giving
		

			sadaqa to help someone else out. You give me something called to help yourself out. You're
benefiting from this more than anyone else. So imagine if I just take a bunch of clothes and I just
put them in a garbage bag, or I take broken toys from our children and I just put them in a garbage
bag and put them at the charitable organization. That what kind of wealth are we giving to Allah
subhanaw taala you know, having said this, I want to finish on this in sha Allah. There's a very
interesting story of Abdullah Ivanova raka Allah on a Abdullah Barak was a very famous scholar, a
scholar of Hadith In fact, he says lol ISNA doula column and SHA Masha. This is a very famous quote
		

			of Abdullah Imran Barak, where he says that if there was no Senate, no chain of narrators that
anyone could say whatever they want to say meaning that if you ever look at a major book of Hadith,
there is a chain of narrators, he says that if that chain of narrators did not exist, then anyone
could say anything. And they could attribute it to us was ALLAH audio Salam. So it is mentioned that
one time he was an homage and that year, one one night he went to sleep, and he saw two angels
conversing with each other. One angel said to the other, that how many people do you think came this
year for hij? The other angel said that approximately 600,000 People came for hug this year. So then
		

			the first angel says that how many people's hygiene has been accepted this year. And the second
angel said that I believe that no one's Hodge has been accepted this year. And the first angel said
that, you know, everyone's HUD was not going to be accepted. But because of one person because of
one person in Damascus, Allah accepted everyone's hij. Now I'd love him back when he woke up he was
he was shocked. He like he was in a state of all like he was like, He's not know how to make sense
of this. You have first of all, so many 1000s of people have come for hij and none of their HUD was
going to be accepted but because there's one man who did not even come for Hajj that year. He was
		

			not in hudge. Because of him. Allah accepted everyone's Hajaj. That is shocking. So when other than
Barack and you know the angels did actually disclose the name of this person, so I believe in Barack
after his head was over
		

			He went to Damascus. And he enquired about this person. He was told that he is a cobbler. He's a
shoemaker. And so he went to him and he said, that this is who I am. And so he said, Why is a very
famous scholar or very well known scholar in search of me, like, why are you looking for me? And I
blocked him and told him the entire story. And then he asked him that, did you do anything good,
that Allah did all this, and Allah accepted everyone's hij, because of you. And he said that, well,
it just so happened that before I was about to embark on my journey of hydrogen, I had collected my
life savings. This is the only hedge I was able to do. So I collected all my life to perform this
		

			one hedge. But before I was about to go for height, I went to go visit my I went to go visit my
neighbor. So when I went to go visit him, I saw that he and his family were sitting down and they're
eating. Now generally, when they're sitting down and eating, usually people invite the host, the
host, he saying, I would love to invite you the neighbor saying I would love to invite you, but I
cannot. And he says that the reason I cannot Is that me and my family, we have been starving for so
many days. And out of starvation. I realized that there now you know things are maybe haram or not
halal for us because of our desperation or just, you know, our desperation. So he says, I went out I
		

			saw a dead donkey and as we all know that a dead animal is unlawful to consume. But he says that
because of our desperation, I cut that donkey open, I took out a piece of flesh, I came home my
wife, she cooked it and here we are sitting in we're eating this, this person who felt so bad that
this is my neighbor, in my neighbor is struggling this much while I go in I enjoy myself for
hydrogen. He said this cannot happen. He took his life savings that he was about to use for
hydrogen. And this now this is considered as great wealth. This is something that you will any
person will love to have. He says that I picked I took all that money, and I gave it as charity to
		

			this person. And I'll go in well it says that because of this because you gave the best that you
had. And because you did such an act of kindness to help this person out. This is why Allah subhanaw
taala accepted everyone's Hajj because of that one action. Subhanallah Never underestimate brothers
and sisters when you give sadaqa to help someone else out. You we don't realize that we may be
giving sadaqa to one person and probably that person may not benefit from it but Allah subhanaw
taala is probably benefiting someone else. And now that Allah Subhan is benefiting you in ways that
you cannot and we cannot even possibly imagine. So always remember that when it comes to a sign of
		

			our iman is that we open our hearts, we give for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala once again, the
more we give, the more Allah will give us and there are so many benefits of sadaqa and all that but
the adage of sadaqa also is that do not use that as an insult against anyone do not use your sadaqa
to gain any kind of worldly positions. And also when we give to the QA, we give the best that we
have the best that Allah has given us. We give that to help someone else out. Ask Allah subhanaw
taala to open our hearts may Allah subhanaw taala increase in our wealth. May Allah subhanaw taala
give poor Baraka in our wealth, may the wealth that we have be a means of happiness and a means of
		

			content for all of us. I mean noble Alameen does akmola hate salaam Wa alaykum Warahmatullahi
